background: h-reflex is a valuable electrophysiological technique for assessing nerve conduction through entire length of afferent and efferent pathways, especially nerve roots and proximal segments of peripheral nerves. the aim of this study was to investigate the relation between normal values of flexor carpi radialis (fcr) h-reflex latency, upper limb length and age in normal subjects, and t...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: the h-reflex is a useful electrophysiological procedure for evaluating the status of the peripheral nervous system, especially at the proximal segment of the peripheral nerve. the purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between triceps surae h-reflex and m- response latencies and thigh length in normal population, in order t...

Background & Aim: A gag reflex (GR) can be a problem to compliance and delivery of dental treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of Diospyros kaki L. fruit extract in controlling gag reflex during dental treatment. Experimental: Our study was a randomized double blind controlled trial with convenient sampling on 84 patients that is candidate for ra...

background: several prognostic factors exist influencing the outcome of surgical discectomy in the patients with lumbar disc herniation (ldh). the aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between severity of preoperative impaired ankle reflex and outcomes of lumbar discectomy in the patients with l5-s1 ldh. methods: we retrospectively evaluated 181 patients (108 male and 73 female) who...

We carried out electroneuromyography of 78 patients with degenerative-dystrophic cervical and lumbar spine disorders, which were treated at the neurosurgical department Irkutsk Scientific Centre Surgery Traumatology. The results study late ENMG phenomena such as H-reflex, F-waves A-reflex obtained different stages disease using “Neuromyan” neuromyoanalyzer. predictable changes in answers proces...

background and aim: the normal response of h-reflex depression (hd) was reduced in chronic spinal cord injury (sci) patients. the reduction of this normal response can lead to increase the muscle tone and spasticity. the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of tripolar cathodal stimulation on hd in sci patients.   materials and methods: this study was conducted in 10 volunteered s...
